The CEO’s Wife Has A Secret - Chapter 194
“Should I open the curtain or just turn on the lights?” Lim Yi Sheng asked.
“Curtain.” she answered with a smile.
Since this is a rare morning it is better to admire the morning sun once in a while, she thought. Usually if it is already this late, she would already be inside her office, driving her car, or already visiting sites.
Appreciating little things like this, it was really rare.
“Alright.” Lim Yi Sheng said as he walked towards the window and pulled the curtains open.
When Lim Yi Sheng drew the curtains open, the dim room was engulfed wit sudden brightness that the both of them even needed a few seconds to adjust their eyes with the sudden brightness of the room.
“I’ll just go to the restroom to wash my face.”

Xi Ana smiled and went towards the bathroom to wash her face for a while, since the breakfast is already here she doesn’t need to go down for a meal anymore so she would just change later on.
While washing her face on the sink, she raised her head and took a look at herself. Though her eyes still look a bit puffy its not to the point that one would take notice of it at first glance.
If it does not look like this then she might need to rethink whether all the crying last night was real or was it just a dream.
She splashed some more cold water on her face before drying it with a clean towel. It’s not like it would take an hour to wash her face so after a while she already went out the bathroom and sat on the bed but she didn’t see a trace of her husband.
From where she is sitting she can smell the scent of rice and it made her curious since there was a cover on it. She might be a little curious but then she was also too lazy to check and so she just leaned her back on the headboard and closed her eyes for a bit to rest.
It’s not like she’s sick or anything but all the crying from the previous night made her head feel heavy as if she had drunk and is currently having a hangover in the morning, that’s exactly what it feels like.
Her eyes were only closed for a few seconds when she opened it again because of the sound of the door opening. She’s sure that it was her husband, he must have took something from the outside earlier.
“Are you not feeling well?” that was the first thing Lim Yi Sheng asked when he saw how dispirited she is.
She shook her head lightly as she answered, “I’m fine, it’s just that my head felt heavier than usual. It must be because I woke up so late. By the way what is that?” this not entirely a lie because she does feel that way whenever she wakes up late even before.
Anyway, Xi Ana is referring to the tray he is currently holding. It’s not a bed tray table just like the thing he brought in earlier, this time it’s just really a simple serving tray.
“I’m not sure whether you have an appetite for rice so I just rushed and toasted a few slices of bread just in case.” Lim Yi Sheng said as he placed the tray on the table and removed the cover of the omurice.
“I like rice. Did you make an omelet and garlic rice?” as soon as the cover of the dish was lifted, the smell of eng and garlic immediately entered Xi Ana’s nostrils.
Lim Yi Sheng carried the tray and placed it front of his wife, he also took the glasses of milk and placed them on the bedside table to avoid spilling them.
“To be exact, I made an omurice, although it doesn’t have the authentic Japanese taste I still tried to recreate it. You mentioned that you miss eating Japanese food but I really don’t know what Japanese food is appropriate for breakfast.”
Searching the Internet will help but he still don’t know whether his wife would like it so he just opted for something that could be familiar in taste.
In Xi Ana’s perspective, it is perfectly normal if her husband was not able to create the exact same taste of the omurice that Japanese people do, recreating a dish from a different culture no matter how simple it is there will still be that subtle difference between the original and the recreated dish.
Xi Ana smiled as she looked at the omurice on the plate. Just by looking at it, one would immediately recognize as such. “Dear, appearance-wise there is something lacking.” she said seriously.
Those words made Lim Yi Sheng frown in confusion, “Appearance-wise? Isn’t that how an omurice usually looks like? What’s lacking?”
Seeing the confused look on her husband she knows that he is currently rethinking the procedure on how to make this dish, trying to determine what’s lacking and Xi Ana can’t help but chuckle at this sight.
“Japanese people usually writes messages on top of the omurice using the ketchup if they are making it for someone!” she said these words with more conviction to make him believe.
“Really?” On the other hand, Lim Yi Sheng is seriously thinking about it because when he browsed the Internet before he cooked he did see a few pictures of omurice with writings on top of it so to say that he is already on his way to believe Xi Ana might not be wrong.
Xi Ana laughed at the expression that her husband has, he is really about to believe her. “I’m just making things up, I also don’t know. I just saw it one time in an anime that Li Jingli is watching. As for whether it was a tradition in Japan or not, I’m not sure.”
That was really the case. There was one time Li Jingli was watching an anime and the character wrote on the omurice using ketchup to apologize to the other character and Xi Ana found it cute and amusing so she remembered this particular episode.
“So you were only teasing me?” the smile on Lim Yi Sheng’s eyes even reached his eyes.
Instead of answering, Xi Ana just laughed as she picked up the spoon and ate a mouthful of the dish. “How was it?” Lim Yi Sheng asked a little nervously. It was a simple dish but he had never eaten it before thus for the seasoning he merely relied on how he perceived the taste would be.
“It’s good, it does taste like omurice and I like it better since it was you who made it.” food really tastes better at some days.
She had long heard what a breakfast in bed is and she find it too romantic but now that she experienced it, it was not actually the fact that its romantic that’s making it special. It’s the warmth it brings to one’s heat.

Xi Ana was the first one to finish taking a bath and Lim Yi Sheng also went to the bathroom afterwards. While she was changing, her phone suddenly rang and when she picked it up she saw that it was Aaron who is calling her.
A line formed on her forehead, why is he suddenly calling, did something happen? This is what’s running on her mind as she answered the call. Their meeting is already set for tonight and they already decided with the place and time so he didn’t really need to call her at this time.
“Hello, Aaron?”
“Ana, I might need to cancel my meeting with you tonight because I need to go back immediately. It seems like something happened with my people, I need to check on them but if you have time this lunch then I can just meet you in your office fora while.” he sounded serious as he said those words in one breath.
Aaron is someone who values his people and if something really happened to them the he would definitely not stay back and do nothing. She knew him for a long time no and she can see how much value he has for them
He is one of the best personal investigator in the world but of course this is only known to people who are mingling in the dark society like them though its not like anyone could just hire him. Anyway, if something really happened to his people then it is more or less connected with the underground society.
Xi Ana glanced at her wrist watch and it’s almost 10 o’clock in the morning, considering the time the latest time she would reach Xi Corporation would be before 12 noon.
